Film Reviews by DR

Wonderful film, thought provoking, sad wistful but also uplifting, yes and some very fine music to boot

Quite simply one of the best films I have ever seen. I did not know what to expect. It started out as a simple yet touching story and layer on layer was added to produce a film of great complexity touching sad, moving, tragic and thought provoking it draws you in . The director describes it as a detective story shot in a documentary style but without a detective. It will keep you guessing to the end!

This is the second time I have seen this film and reading the book "into thin air" a personal account of the Everest disaster on the strength of the film .Gripping, compelling engrossing and moving Based on what proved to be the worst tragedy Everest has ever seen
